When Napoleon wasn’t working, which was very often, or attending meetings with the other pigs and animals, he was usually taking care of the puppies which he had locked in a room in the house which the other animals wouldn’t have look. Besides no one was really looking for them, they basically didn’t even realise that the puppies were even gone, let alone they remembered that there were any puppies. Napoleon had the guineas idea of making them grow up to be ruthless and scary to protect himself and to get a rid of Snowball. Napoleon had enough of Snowball. Him getting the attention and not using the power he had to take control over the farm and the animals.
Raising the puppies in the beginning was tough for Napoleon, such as: there was only one of him and several pups, and it was hard to get them to follow his orders. He got irritated easily before he started to train the dogs, so you can imagine the amount of anger this induced on him.

He didn’t stop though, he made a big speech to them which he was going to tell the others when they were ready, he tried to convince them that Snowball was in league with the humans like Mr. Jones. Now most of the pups believed him. They were only a couple of months old, and Napoleon was the one who raised them when their parents did not take responsibility and raise them.
There was one puppy however who was the oldest out of the bunch, his name was buster, he thought that thought doing this would create mayhem on the farm. When he was alone with his brothers and sisters, he tried to talk them out of doing it and instead try to escape the room which they were in, but they were too small to reach the door handle, even if they were able to reach it, it would have been hard for them to use it when they didn’t have hands. They were trapped and they couldn’t
Napoleon interpreted snowball as a criminal and blamed for every bad thing that happens on the farm., it is stated in Document D “No better than a criminal” “Every night, it wa said, he came creeping in under cover of darkness and performed all kinds of mischief. He stole the corn, he upset the milk-pails, he broke the eggs”. As Snowball was being blamed for every bad thing even when someone say he was brave in the battle of cowshed, squealer the pig tells everyone that bravery is not enough, loyalty and obedience are more important. Napoleon also uses porpangander to envision himself as a fearful and brave leader. In the battle of Cowshed, Napoleon is perceived as a leader and fearful as it is state in document E “Our leader, Comrade Napoleon” “ when panic was spreading and all seemed lost, that Comrade Napoleon sprang forward with cry of “Death to Humanity!” and sank his teeth in jones’s
11. We are told that Napoleon and Snowball disagree on just about everything. What, however, is the one thing on which they are in full agreement at the end of this chapter?
5. How did Napoleon get rid of Snowball and gain full control of the animals? Napoleon trained puppies into wolf-like dogs that would do whatever he said, including chasing away Snowball and threatening other animals. 6.
Napoleon was a fierce leader like Hitler. Napoleon was leader of the animals in the book called Animal Farm by George Orwell. The main methods Napoleon uses to power over the other animals are he scares them and gives them pride.
This is proven multiple times where they use the animals for labor and are cutting down the amount of food they are provided with. An example of this is with the dogs that had been taken from their mothers, and that “it was noticed that they wagged their tails to him in the same way as the other dogs had been used to do to Mr. Jones.” This shows that the animals look up to Napoleon the way that the dogs used to look up to their former master, Mr. Jones. Napoleon had used the dogs to get rid of Snowball, training them to do as he says and to follow him, as if he is superior, which breaks the last of the seven commandments, that all animals are
While Napoleon was gaining power over the animals he had to get rid of other politicians and opposing citizens. He did this by raising dogs that would strike fear into citizens and end up chasing Snowball out of the farm making Napoleon have total power. “Four young porkers…uttered shrill squeals of disapproval…. But…the dogs sitting round Napoleon let out deep, menacing growls, and the pigs fell silent and sat down again.”(document B). This made it so the animals were too scared to oppose or overthrow Napoleon. He also made it so no one could challenge him politically. He did this by having his dogs kill masses of people so no one would dare have different opinions and speak out against him. “When they had finished their confession, the dogs promptly tore their throats out, and in a terrible voice, Napoleon demanded whether any other animal had anything to confess”(document B). The mass murder made it so Napoleon had total control of the farm. The violence of Napoleon’s leadership caused the animals to fear to have their own opinions and forced them to conform to Napoleon’s
Napoleon had dogs to protect him with unrestricted force. These dogs were first used to remove Snowball from the farm and not long after that became Napoleon’s constant companions. The dogs weren’t only for protecting Napoleon, but they were also used to strike fear into the other members of the farm.
But he trained them to be killers. First they drag the pigs by their ears and once Napoleon forced the pugs to confess about how they were secretly in touch with Snowball he ordered my pups to kill them. My pups ripped at the throats of the pigs. Then my pups tried to have a go at boxer, it was as though the taste of the pigs blood sent them mad.
Napoleon used force to gain control of Animal Farm, and used fear to keep it. When he and Snowball both led the other animals, they had many disagreements. Napoleon saw that Snowball was better at communicating with the animals, so he used the dogs which he had secretly trained to drive Snowball away – permanently. Napoleon used these dogs to keep all the animals ‘in line’ and quash any thought of rebellion with fear.
Soon after building the windmill, it falls and Napoleon blames Snowball for its destruction. Some of the animals sympathize with Snowball, saying that there was no way he could have pushed it over. Napoleon becomes angry, purging the farm, killing anyone who he accuses of allying with Snowball. After he did so, animals questioned his tactics only for Napoleon to ask the animals, “Surely comrades, you would not want Jones back? (Orwell, pg. 67 Chap. 6)” By saying this rhetorical question, the animals would not question what it was that Jones had done that was worse than Napoleon, and they would just get back to doing their work. Napoleon used Squealer the pig to help him get out of situations that he brought upon himself. When Napoleon would say something that he was not supposed to, Squealer would justify for
Animal farm is about Mr. Jones farm being overthrown by the animals. The animals were tired of the way they were treated and thought it would be best if they ran the farm themselves. Once the animals gained control of the farm the pigs took charge and began reforming the farm, eventually Napoleon the pig rose up and took control of the pigs and the farm. Napoleon corrupted and twisted snowball and old major, two other pigs, ideas by using propaganda and turning snowball into the villain that everyone opposed to solely benefit his power hungry self. At first Napoleon did not seem like he needed to be the most powerful out of all the animals, he was happy just being in the most powerful group, the pigs, but once he got a taste of what it felt like to have everyone do exactly what he says, he decided to run the other competing pigs away to gain sole power.
Napoleon was not a leader known for being loved by the crowd or having the ability to gain the trust of his followers, rather he just talked when it was truly needed. After the revolution happened, Napoleon took nine pups and trained them in private without anyone knowing what he was doing with them, he was known for being a leader that wasn't transparent with his actions and this was one of the reasons why the animals prefered Snowball. Then when Napoleon realized that he couldn't compete against Snowball, he used the dogs that he trained to kick him out of the farm, later he convinced the animals to believe that every error that was made was Snowball’s fault and blamed him for every bad situation that was occurring in the farm. When he kicked
After the revolution, Manor Farm was renamed to Animal Farm and the Seven Commandments of animalism were established to ensure equality. The pigs became the supervisors of the farm. However, the rivalry between two pigs Snowball and Napoleon made Napoleon use force. Napoleon ordered his dogs to chase out Snowball from the farm in order to become the only leader. Napoleon’s selfishness and corrupt power made him commit different atrocities against his own comrades. As a result, the lives of the animals except for the pigs and dogs were of tyranny and inequality. Napoleon became worse than their former human master. The animals spent the rest of his life almost starving and working in the construction of the windmill that was destroyed several times. The abolishment of Sunday morning meetings, the public execution of animals, and the drinking of alcohol were the most important changes that facilitated the transformation of animal farm, and Napoleon as the most responsible for the downfall of the utopian vision of Animal Farm.
This overthrow was a premeditated thought, as he had previously taken a litter of dogs away from their mothers, “kept them in a loft…and the rest of the farm soon forgot their existence.'; Napoleon had previously calculated how to obtain ultimate power, and eliminates all of the thoughts or animals opposed to his regime.
To eliminate Snowball’s threat to his power, Napoleon steals a litter of puppies, trains them
